That was a most excellent explanation :) I think even I can understand it. When you said earlier that you were going to have a roaming option, I was worried because the roaming on other devices have been nothing but a pain in the butt, such as with Orinoco. I actually gave up on Orinoco because of the automatic roaming that cannot be turned off, at least with windows xp. With Orinoco (and many other products as well) the darned things will roam to random access points regardless of the ESSID as long as it is 802.11b it will try to associate. I was afraid this was what you were going to announce. Glad to hear you are not going that direction, please keep up the good work :)
